Smoke rising?



I looked out across our valley in the Jerusalem Hills  and my heart sank!
It looked like smoke rising.
The last thing we want in our moshav on a hill surrounded by forest is a fire.

But there was also the noise of an  all-terrain vehicle going full speed.
I could not spot the ATV but I watched and finally saw that  clouds of dust (not smoke) were following the route of the twisting dirt road.
What a relief!

  5. I'm not so sure it's great to have that ATV there either although it is better than smoke.

  6. Fires have been a nightmare in Portugal this summer. It seems it's getting worse and worse every year!
